Must-See: Rihanna Makes It Rain ‘Diamonds’ On ‘The X Factor UK’

rihanna rain xfactor uk e1353881185200 Must See: Rihanna Makes It Rain Diamonds On The X Factor UK

Wrapping a week of non-stop promotion, Rihanna took front stage centre tonight on the The X Factor UK, delivering a show-stopping performance of chart-topping single ‘Diamonds’.

Let’s just say the ‘Unapologetic’ performer turned in a showing she won’t be saying sorry for.

It happened. Rihanna…dare we say…slayed!

Yes, the smoke and mirrors were basically a metaphor for her career, but kudos where they’re due, that was an outstanding performance.

“Shade” as we may, our prime problem with the 24 year old is her position as Pop’s most consistently inconsistent act. Indeed, few can rival her uncanny ability to deliver a solid performance in one breath, only to serve up her worst in the next.

Still, in the here and now, that was a great showing. More of this Rih…please.

Your thoughts?

  • It was a great vocal performance. And I honestly believe that she portrayed a lot of emotion in that performance. I will admit that her performances are inconsistent but when she delivers, she DELIVERS! In the words of Sam more of this please Rihanna!!!!!

      I thought her perfromance of ‘Stay’ actually slayed on SNL! This was okay better than usual! I like dress.

      I am so disgusted about CB having to close his account and that racist feminst slore being made to plaay the victim after her 2 yeaar long campaign of hatred against him. He blocked her but sent sh*t via her followers but its all good cause she cyber-bullied Chris brown. I hate truth behind Ameri(K3)a’s facade.

    I can just imagine what Nicole Scherzinger was thinking, she must have been fuming because Riri used to open for the Pussy Cat Dolls, now she is selling out stadiums and arena’s.

The theatrics in the end kinda made it better, as for the vocals, I’ll say atleast I wasn’t covering my ears or cringing. So good job Rihanna. There was one note though when she goes “shine bright like a diamond….oooohhhhhh.shine bri. ..” it got me,her bbest performance yet. (Ok rihtards, I was nice)

        I really like RR and think its her best work, however its not my one of my all time faves. Medoner is not that bad, you should listen to Ray of Light, Bedtime stories, Erotica, True Blue among others to kinda get into her. Tihahun is my dad’s favorite singer of all time. I’ll post you one of my favorites from him.

Incredible, the intro made me laugh though in 2010 it said she’d sold 80 Million Records, in 2011 it said she’d sold 130 Million Records and now in 2012 the intro says she’s sold 180 Million records….it just makes me LAUGH every time the inflation of record sales is just HILARIOUS selling 50 Million records a year…

    LOL peep Rita Ora nation and Rita ora best friend on twitter, kyle devolle – her stylist., tryna shade Rihanna’s performance. Just Even tryna say, that rih stepped up a her vocal cos she is knows Rita is among? Coming with what, with her not hits.

    Jay Z needs to check Rita Ora stylist, Kyle Devolle. He is all on twitter calling rihanna a bitch and saying she bites people styles, now he is dissing her performance. And who is rita Ora ?

  • Rihanna has bitten off every one, nothing she is doing has not been done within the last 2 years are less so that was true. Ok! on this performance she did good but for one, how long has this chick been out and you can count on 1 hand how many good, not great performances she has done and to be honest her and that other vocals going sounded too much alike, the other vocals being the backtracking! She always makes them emotional faces when performing so nothing new. Rihanna dont do stand out performances and she should have mastered them by now so stop. The UK loves this mess so much I believe she should stay there.

    • Rihanna,,,Graded “A” Grammy Performance
      TIME Magazine posted a list of “best and worst of the 2011 Grammy Awards”. Rihanna’s performances got the highest mark “A” naming one of the best performances of the night. Here’s what they said:

      “Love The Way You Lie (Part II)”

      Rihanna rarely sings alone. She’s almost always accompanied by another singer, drowned out by synthesizers or Auto-Tuned by an overzealous producer. But tonight, at least briefly, it’s just Rihanna and the microphone. Then Eminem appears and does the unthinkable: he makes the performance even better. When the duo performed “Love the Way You Lie” at the MTV Video Music Awards earlier this year, they seemed disjointed and unrehearsed. Here, they’ve have found their element. And Dr. Dre, whose cameo could have been an unnecessary addition, only added to the fire.
      Grade: A

      “What’s My Name” feat. Drake

      It’s official: the 2011 Grammys should just be renamed The Rihanna Show. For her second appearance onstage tonight, the pop star ditched the ball gown, shortened her skirt and nailed this duet with Drake. I’m not even sure why Drake was there. Apparently he wan’t either; he wandered off halfway through the song.
      Grade: A

      People are saying she slayed because her voice seems stronger, less nasal notes (she had gotten rid nasality mostly by Rated R but it still comes every know and then) and powerful big notes. Russian roulette is old and Unfaithful performances have started to get pitchy.

        My dear sir, need I remind you that I told you already, and I quote, “since you are a chronological liar who likes to spin stories your way, I’ll correct you when I see fit” and you replied back saying you’ll say whatever you want and I told you that’s your choice and I will still correct you? What is wrong with your memory? This incident that you are referring to happened on your fave, Beyonce’s, post and since then I have gone on to correct your blatant lies with actual evident in a couple of other posts. Not recalling this, my dear? Well, that’s just too bad. As for this topic at hand, it still remains that as long as we are all allowed to say/act the way we want @MACHIAVEL also has every right to say this. What a hypocrite you really are, you stan for “vulgar” girls yet you want to play Mother Teresa and preach to @MACHIAVEL about his word choices? Please, cry me a river. Conceitedly your “holier than thou” behavior doesn’t occur when the Navy and alike posts vulgar and disgusting this, right? Of course not, its you we are talking about, not an honest individual. And yes, you’re stanning for these vulgar girls discredit all of your assertions as well as the credibility you seem to think that you have. All is well though, keep on posting more lies and shit. By the way, don’t you have some more “digging” up to do about your fave Beyonce?

      • As for this topic at hand, it still remains that as long as we are all allowed to say/act the way we want @MACHIAVEL also has every right to say this

        And where have I stated that @MACHIAVEL cannot say whatever he/she wants to say? I’ll wait.

        What a hypocrite you really are, you stan for “vulgar” girls yet you want to play Mother Teresa and preach to @MACHIAVEL about his word choices?

        Another attempt at poising the well. Once agian, me being a fan of the so called “vulgar girls” does not discredit my point. My point is still valid whether I “stan” for Lil’ Wayne, Kanye West or Eminem. My “stanning” for these girls does not disprove what I pointed out, that is a fallacy.

        Please, cry me a river. Conceitedly your “holier than thou” behavior doesn’t occur when the Navy and alike posts vulgar and disgusting this, right?

        Firstly, you addressed me, I did not address you. Why would I cry you a river when you clearly “but” into a conversation that was not with you to begin with?

        Secondly I am not the spokesperson of the navy, if you feel strongly about their vulgarities, say something about it, do not expect me to do so.

        And yes, you’re stanning for these vulgar girls discredit all of your assertions as well as the credibility you seem to think that you have

        We are back to this fallacy, still poisoning the well. And I have never claimed to have any credibility in what I post so this point is irrelevant.

        All is well though, keep on posting more lies and shit. By the way, don’t you have some more “digging” up to do about your fave Beyonce?

        I will continue making my postings whether you think they are lies or not, you’re not important. You’re not my boss, nor the president for me to lose sleep over what you think of my postings. You’re simply a nobody I could care less about. And what makes you think I’m not digging up right now?

        Next time you think of “challenging my so called lies”, leave the fallacies out of it, it cheapens your arguments.

      • Hold on one minute while I gather myself, you are truly a funny individual! Comical! Sighs, I back.

        1. I’m sorry, I guess I fail to see what ignited your initial little preach of comment to @MACHIAVEL. What was the point that you were trying to make when you first replied to him? So you mean to tell me that you said all that you said to him, yet you are not trying to censor him?

        “Do you talk to your mother with such a vulgar tongue? Shame on your mom for raising such a vulgar child, she is clearly a horrible parent.” <—- this is what you originally said to him. You not only criticized what e=he said but you went on to attack his parents. It sure as hell came across as you trying to censor his opinion the3rfore indirectly trying to prevent him from expressing yourself. If this was not your intention then you must work on being clear with your pitiful comments.

        2. "Another attempt at poisoning the well." Comic!!! "Attempt at poisoning" really? Really dear? See my first comment again and look at what I typed in (1). You stan for vulgar girls who say "So much dick ridding my cock hurts" etc etc etc and you are suddenly offended by a commentators opinion.

        hyp·o·crite — noun
        1. a person who pretends to have virtues, moral or religious beliefs, principles, etc., that he or she does not actually possess, especially a person whose actions belie stated beliefs.

        That fits you and this situation perfectly.

        3. I apologized (lol), this wasn't a conversation ( a conversation required two active people communicating rather than one preaching to the other) and even if it was, this is a music forum, so I can and will give my opinion anywhere and everywhere I see fit as you do. Secondly, "cry me a river" is clearly a figurative saying and not meant to be taken in a literal sense, I really don't know what else to say to you about this. RIP. Oh, I don't remember saying you were a spoke person for the Navy *goes and search for evidence* yes, it appears that I never said that, rather I said you don't have a problem when the navy says that (which they do) but it clearly is when others say this. Your logic is just amazing. WOW

        4. "We are back to this fallacy, still poisoning the well. And I have never claimed to have any credibility in what I post so this point is irrelevant." Oh so you are aware that you have no credibility? Why didn't you say so? Okay, I can defiantly agree with this comment. I said nothing but the the truth, something you cannot handle.

        5. "I will continue making my postings whether you think they are lies or not, you’re not important." Again, appoint me to where I said you can't? Go ahead and post away and I will go one to correct your lies as I see fit. You do realize that whether I have importance in your life doesn't matter to me, right? You are a nobody on the internet, why would I care what you think of me? You take yourself too highly.

        "You’re not my boss, nor the president for me to lose sleep over what you think of my postings." Defensive much? LOL LOL LOL. You are right, I am not your boss, if you really needed that reassurance.

        "You’re simply a nobody I could care less about." Mutual feeling really.

        "And what makes you think I’m not digging up right now?" We all know your obsessive nature, so I believe this 1500001% The first honest thing you told in a while to be honest. I cannot refute this.

        "Next time you think of 'challenging my so called lies', leave the fallacies out of it, it cheapens your arguments." No "fallacies" in my comments, they are all based on what you said and logic unlike yours. While you are at this, why don't you take your own advice and post credible sources for your allegations in the future? Hilarious coming from you, you do post music blogs as a way of evidence for your claims on regular basis.

      • 1. I’m sorry, I guess I fail to see what ignited your initial little preach of comment to @MACHIAVEL. What was the point that you were trying to make when you first replied to him?

        Whatever point I was trying to make, or whatever ignited my so called “preach” has got nothing to do with you.

        So you mean to tell me that you said all that you said to him, yet you are not trying to censor him?

        I don’t mean to tell you anything because I did not address you in my original comment. Assumption =/= fact.

        “Do you talk to your mother with such a vulgar tongue? Shame on your mom for raising such a vulgar child, she is clearly a horrible parent.” <—- this is what you originally said to him. You not only criticized what e=he said but you went on to attack his parents. It sure as hell came across as you trying to censor his opinion the3rfore indirectly trying to prevent him from expressing yourself.

        Well it was a yes or no question, the person had 3 options, pick yes, pick no or ignore it. And how is this different from you attacking Christina, who I’m a fan of by trying to silence me?

        2. “Another attempt at poisoning the well.” Comic!!! “Attempt at poisoning” really? Really dear? See my first comment again and look at what I typed in (1). You stan for vulgar girls who say “So much dick ridding my cock hurts” etc etc etc and you are suddenly offended by a commentators opinion.

        Poisoning the well is “where adverse information about a target is pre-emptively presented to an audience, with the intention of discrediting or ridiculing everything that the target person is about to say”

        Example of poisoning the well

        A. Before you listen to this guy, may I remind you that he “stans” for vulgar women, eg. Xtina, Rihanna, Nicki Minaj

        B. Therefore anything this person says towards vulgarities is wrong.

        It is a fallacy in the sense that just because the person “stans” for the said women, it does not disprove his original point. Points, or rather arguments are disproved with factual evidence and not fallacies nor assumptions.

        hyp·o·crite — noun
        1. a person who pretends to have virtues, moral or religious beliefs, principles, etc., that he or she does not actually possess, especially a person whose actions belie stated beliefs.

        That fits you and this situation perfectly.

        That is an ad hominem.

        An ad hominem is is an argument made personally against an opponent, instead of against the opponent’s argument.

        Oh, I don’t remember saying you were a spoke person for the Navy *goes and search for evidence* yes, it appears that I never said that,

        OK???? I never said you stated that I was the spokes person of the navy. I made the point that I am not the spokes person of the navy, and seeing that I am not, I will not police their statements. You are free to do so if you so wish.

        You do realize that whether I have importance in your life doesn’t matter to me, right? You are a nobody on the internet, why would I care what you think of me? You take yourself too highly.

        Well seeing that you stalked my post to the point where you replied to a post I made, which had nothing to do with you, it is kind of difficult to make the argument that you do not care what I think about you. You stalked my post and even forced your opinion on a post I made which has absolutely nothing to do with you?

        No “fallacies” in my comments, they are all based on what you said and logic unlike yours.

        I have already pointed out 2 fallacies and there are more in that post you made. You not only came with fallacies, but it seems you cannot differentiate a “logical” statement to one made with assumptions.

        While you are at this, why don’t you take your own advice and post credible sources for your allegations in the future? Hilarious coming from you, you do post music blogs as a way of evidence for your claims on regular basis.

        What is hilarious is you still read the sources but do not challenge the sources with your “credible” sources.

      • I see Sam delete my comment. I’ll rephrase what I said.
        ______________________________
        1. You ignored my comment, hence you are defeated. This is a music forum where people can post WHERE EVER they want and I have taken that to my heart, so deal with it.
        2. You obviously mean to tell me something when you keep on responding to me.
        3. You asked me no questions, so you received no answers. I have never attacked Christina without her fans attacking me or my favorite artist, you see unlike you I don’t dig up lies about artists that I dislike. Wait, are you, a Beyonce obsessed hater, questioning me about attacking other artists? HYPOCRITE.
        4. What you posted fails to prove whatever point that you were trying desperately to make. All the things that I said were based on what YOU wrote. It is a fact that you stan for Rihanna and other vulgar girls, yet you want to attack another poster for merely stating his opinion while you do the same? You are a hypocrite so I already proved that.
        5. Well, a fail really. I already attacked your points. Here it is again. You said his mother was a bad parent and so forth for merely saying what he wanted. I am curious I don’t suppose you called Rihanna’s mother a bad mother for this? Or Nicki’s? Or Xtina’s? YOUR rely is the ultimate definition of an ad hominem, because you attacked him and his mother instead of what he said. Again, hypocrite much?
        6. You brought up the “spoke person” issue so why are you puzzled? I am free to do what I want, and I am well aware of this.
        7. “Well seeing that you stalked my post to the point where you replied to a post I made, which had nothing to do with you, it is kind of difficult to make the argument that you do not care what I think about you.” Do you have evidence of this? You made many comments today as I have, but this is the first time I replied back to you, so that’s a lie. So by your logic I care about you? Does that mean I care about Sam because I come to this site to comment? Does it also mean you care about me as you keep replying to me? I fail to see you contrived, twisted, logic here.
        8. “I have already pointed out 2 fallacies and there are more in that post you made. You not only came with fallacies, but it seems you cannot differentiate a ‘logical’ statement to one made with assumptions.” This is a lie and I have already proven this. So now you are telling me what I can and cannot do? I thought I was “free to do what I want?” Contradicting much? So are you saying the part about you calling his mother “a bad parent” an assumption? I beg to deffer.
        9. “What is hilarious is you still read the sources but do not challenge the sources with your ‘credible’ sources.”
        Okay then, show me the source where it says Beyonce controlled Rita Ora into getting Rihanna out of the entertainment business? Show me the proof where Beyonce was using her daughter for publicity. I will show you my counter proofs when you provide a “credible” one.

        Well, this was interesting. I have to leave for today but feel free to leave your response, I just won’t “drag” you any further today.

      • 1. You ignored my comment, hence you are defeated. This is a music forum where people can post WHERE EVER they want and I have taken that to my heart, so deal with it.

        OK, there’s no point to this comment.

        2. You obviously mean to tell me something when you keep on responding to me.

        Also pointless.

        3. You asked me no questions, so you received no answers. I have never attacked Christina without her fans attacking me or my favorite artist, you see unlike you I don’t dig up lies about artists that I dislike. Wait, are you, a Beyonce obsessed hater, questioning me about attacking other artists? HYPOCRITE.

        So do you or do you not attack artists you don’t like because it seems you’re very complacent with calling Rihanna a whore, which is a non factual statement, more like an attack on a person you do not know, or that wasn’t you hmmm….

        4. What you posted fails to prove whatever point that you were trying desperately to make. All the things that I said were based on what YOU wrote. It is a fact that you stan for Rihanna and other vulgar girls, yet you want to attack another poster for merely stating his opinion while you do the same? You are a hypocrite so I already proved that.

        The point I was making is fallacies do not disprove statements, they sidetrack them. Do you know what a fallacy is??

        5. Well, a fail really. I already attacked your points. Here it is again. You said his mother was a bad parent and so forth for merely saying what he wanted. I am curious I don’t suppose you called Rihanna’s mother a bad mother for this? Or Nicki’s? Or Xtina’s? YOUR rely is the ultimate definition of an ad hominem, because you attacked him and his mother instead of what he said. Again, hypocrite much?

        OK, So I’ll use your logic of and I quote, ” I have never attacked Christina without her fans attacking me or my favorite artist” end quote, and using YOUR logic, I attacked the person for her unwarranted attack towards Rihanna. Who’s the hypocrite again??

        6. You brought up the “spoke person” issue so why are you puzzled? I am free to do what I want, and I am well aware of this.

        Exactly, you stated that I never question the Navy’s attacks and I made the statement that I am not the spokes person of the navy, therefore it is not my job to police them. That statement does not equate you saying I am the spokes person of the navy. I wrote that statement in simple English, there’s nothing complicated with that statement.

        Do you have evidence of this? You made many comments today as I have, but this is the first time I replied back to you, so that’s a lie.

        Well seeing that you replied to a comment that had nothing to do with you, based on a balance of probabilities, it is more likely without reasonable doubt that you stalked my comment and made a comment on it. I skip through your comments and don’t even bother reading them (unless in response to me), so seeing that I can skip through comments from commentators I do not care about, I imagine you can do the same, or is this an extremely difficult concept?

        So by your logic I care about you? Does that mean I care about Sam because I come to this site to comment?

        Well you sure do care about what I write if you can take the time to make a comment on it, the same way you care about what Sam writes since you commit to enter the webpage in your address bar, click on a story, read it and make comments on it.

        Does it also mean you care about me as you keep replying to me?

        Well I don’t care about you, I do care about schooling you on fallacies though.

        This is a lie and I have already proven this. So now you are telling me what I can and cannot do?

        Well I pointed out 2 fallacies, poisoning the well fallacy and ad hominem fallacy. Now we are going to fallacy #3 which is a strawman fallacy.

        A strawman is simply a misrepresentation of an opponent’s position, which you have already done by stating and I quote So now you are telling me what I can and cannot do? end quote. I AM NOT TELLING YOU WHAT YOU CAN AND CANNOT DO.

        So are you saying the part about you calling his mother “a bad parent” an assumption?

        That is also a strawman because I did not make that statement, you did and proceeded to answer your own question with “contradiction much”. I never said my calling of her mother a bad parent was an assumption, you did and proceeded to answer your own question.

        Okay then, show me the source where it says Beyonce controlled Rita Ora into getting Rihanna out of the entertainment business? Show me the proof where Beyonce was using her daughter for publicity. I will show you my counter proofs when you provide a “credible” one.

        Show me the “questionable” sources I provided and I’ll show you why they are credible. Also why didn’t you provide alternative sources challenging my sources on the said story when I provided said sources???

        Report this comment

      • You never learn do you? Well, it seems as you just re-wrote all your previous allegations again, without any further development. Must you be so reductive?
        1. Again, you glanced this comment, hence why no answers were given. I already proved you wrong.
        2. So pointless that I was right? Indeed, you cannot answer this question.
        3. “So do you or do you not attack artists you don’t like because it seems you’re very complacent with calling Rihanna a whore, which is a non factual statement, more like an attack on a person you do not know, or that wasn’t you hmmm….”
        Funny doesn’t this equate you YOU calling Beyonce a whore, slut, etc? Hypocrite. Rihanna at the age of 24 has been tied to so many men that Beyonce at the age of 31 or however old she is has not been tied half that number Rihanna is. My treatment of Rihanna =/= your treatment of Beyonce.
        4. “The point I was making is fallacies do not disprove statements, they sidetrack them. Do you know what a fallacy is??” Are you an idiot? I already proved you wrong. There are no fallacies in my statement, rather you assumed many things about @MACHIAVEL. You said his mother mustn’t be proud, his mother was a bad parent, but HOW DO YOU KNOW ALL THIS? Show me proof that he has a mother, that his mother is disappointed in him, etc? You made all these ASSUMPTIONS based on whatever favors you. You have no way of knowing what his life is like, whether he even has a mother or not. Assumption =/= fact.
        5. “OK, So I’ll use your logic of and I quote, ” I have never attacked Christina without her fans attacking me or my favorite artist” end quote, and using YOUR logic, I attacked the person for her unwarranted attack towards Rihanna. Who’s the hypocrite again??” To answer your question, you are the hypocrite here @MACHIAVEL did not attack Rihanna here, he uses this language with everyone on this site. You attack Beyonce without any prompt every day/ multiple times a day WITHOUT any mention of Beyonce. Don’t even try to deny this, there is too evidence discrediting you.
        6. “That statement does not equate you saying I am the spokes person of the navy. I wrote that statement in simple English, there’s nothing complicated with that statement.” I never said there was anything complicated about this statement. Must you make things up? This just makes you a hypocrite when you overlook ones behavior to call others out on it.
        7. “Well seeing that you replied to a comment that had nothing to do with you, based on a balance of probabilities, it is more likely without reasonable doubt that you stalked my comment and made a comment on it. I skip through your comments and don’t even bother reading them (unless in response to me), so seeing that I can skip through comments from commentators I do not care about, I imagine you can do the same, or is this an extremely difficult concept?” Again this was already answered for you, but you insist on being reductive and repetitive. Once again, this is a music blog, and the original comment had NOTHING TO DO WITH YOU, @MACHIAVEL posted his opinion and you took it upon yourself to chastise him and I took it upon myself to defend him. Again, stalking would require me to comment on every post that you make and there is absolutely no way for you to know unless you were here with me to determine if I stalk you or not. See, you just made an assumption yet again. So by going with your logic should I think that you are stalking @MACHIAVEL for replying to something that had nothing to do with you? [For future reference, stalking is your behavior and obsession to Beyonce].
        8. “Well you sure do care about what I write if you can take the time to make a comment on it, the same way you care about what Sam writes since you commit to enter the webpage in your address bar, click on a story, read it and make comments on it.” So by your theory, I care about you to reply, right? The same then applies to you when you reply to me, the same applies when you come to this site everyday, and the same goes for when you talk about Beyonce. Overall, I care about you as you care about Sam as you care about Beyonce? Nice.
        9. “Well I don’t care about you, I do care about schooling you on fallacies though.” Take your own advice, one a liar always a liar. You are too much of a hypocrite and a “tall-tale” teller to ever educate anyone let alone me. Nice try though.
        10. “A strawman is simply a misrepresentation of an opponent’s position, which you have already done by stating and I quote So now you are telling me what I can and cannot do? end quote. I AM NOT TELLING YOU WHAT YOU CAN AND CANNOT DO.” Must you contradict yourself? Pick a side and stick with it. You pointed out nothing but your ill-fated logic and how much of a hypocrite that you are.
        11. “That is also a strawman because I did not make that statement, you did and proceeded to answer your own question with “contradiction much”. I never said my calling of her mother a bad parent was an assumption, you did and proceeded to answer your own question.”

        REALLY? You never said his mother was a bad parent? I advice you to take a look at your initial reply before commenting next time. Here is a little refreshment for your memory:

        “Beyonce’s Weave Replied:
        November 25th, 2012 at 8:22 pm

        Do you talk to your mother with such a vulgar tongue? Shame on your mom for raising such a vulgar child, she is clearly a horrible parent.”

        Liar.

        12. “Show me the “questionable” sources I provided and I’ll show you why they are credible. Also why didn’t you provide alternative sources challenging my sources on the said story when I provided said sources???” So you mean to tell me there are credible sources that say Beyonce is Salonge’s mother? There are sources that say Beyonce is the reason why Rita Ora copies Rihanna so much? I DARE you to post them…..go ahead.

        At this point you are being repetitive and there is little improvement in your replies. Sad really.

  • Rihanna’s Performances has always been very Entertining to Me,,,,
    The Grammy committee clearly took notice for the upcoming 2012 ceremony, as the recently revealed nominations include a nod in the highly coveted “Album of The Year” category for Loud. Following the Grammys, she jetted across the Atlantic to attend the Brit Awards the following day, in which she won International
    Female Artist of the Year,,,,

    Report this comment

  • Rihanna took to twitter to express her excitement to her fans: “Came with a Grammy, left with a Brit!!!” In May, we saw Rihanna kicking off the return of the Billboard Music Awards with a performance of her #1 single, “S&M”, with fellow pop star Britney Spears. She was awarded that night with “Female Artist of The Year”, based on statical success on their charts.

    Rihana Followed out the year with a series of Wins,,,
    including People’s Choice (Pop Artist, Song, & Music Video), American Music Awards (R&B Album), BET Awards (Female R&B Artist), and a Soul Train Award

    Hey!

    Hi everybody. I am back home from a lovely vacation in the Maldives. Sun, sea, sex and……..Rih’s new album bumping hard at this resort. So….what did I miss? The fact that Rihanna is the number 1 bitch in the globe? HA HA I could told y’all that from 6 months ago. There is a reason why I call her the black madonna.

    So, she is number 1 in the UK, equalling madonna’s record of number 1 LP’s. I thought Rita Ora was gonna stop this?

    Looks like Rita has made her bigger. LOL LOL
